GETTYSBURG (Avalon Hill, 1988) ERRATA
>From General 25-5:
Q: Can you clarify which hill hexes are, and which are not, connected?
A: The only ones that are not immediately obvious are the following:
Hexes F5, F6 and E6 are NOT connected
Hexes D3 and E4 are connected
Hexes E4 and F3 are NOT connected
Hexes G3 and F3 are NOT connected
Hexes A1 and B1 are NOT connected
Hexes S2 and R2 are NOT connected
Q: Can you likewise clarify which of the following wood hexes are connected?
A: Sure - hexes C4/D4, hexes H9/G10 and hexes N1/M2 are connected; the
following pairs of wood hexes are NOT connected: B1/C2, A4/B4, G7/G8, G8/G9,
H2/I3, H6/H7, I6/I7, I7/I8, I8/J8, J8/J9, K3/K4, L4/M5 and U10/U11.
Q: Does a stream hexside mean that two adjacent wood hexes, one on either
side of the stream, are not connected?
A: No, the stream does not preclude the woods hexes from being connected.
Q: There seems to be some discrepancy between Robertson's historic location
and your listing for him at the start of Scenario Three. Is Robertson's
artillery really to be placed in J11?
A: No - place it in I11.
Q: The third example of Movement in the Battle Manual (page 19) seems to be
in error. Or maybe I'm missing something. Could you explain it?
A: The example should read: To hex "E3" (costs one-half movement factor due
to the connecting road), then to hex "F2" (costs two movement factors due to
the woods - even though it is a road hex, it is not connected to hex "E3"),
then to hex "F1" (only one-half movement factor thanks to the connecting
road), and, finally, to hex "G1" at a cost of three movement factors...
By substituting this for the first few lines, the example should now
correspond to the illustration of Reynolds' movement.
